The files are sourced by /etc/ipfilter.conf, so you can use any variables or
procedures defined in /etc/network.conf, /etc/ipfilter.conf, or
/etc/init.d/network.  Look for IPCH_IN, IPCH_OUT, and IPCH_FWD in
/etc/ipfilter.conf to see exactly where they are sourced in relation to the
rest of the rules.  You can either add rules using the -A option (probably
what you want in your case), or the I option to add rules at the beginning
of the list (for things like silently denying something filling up your
logs).
